"I forgive you, but I won't forget what you did, not in some threatening, I don't really forgive you kind of way, but just because what you did was shitty and really hurt me and I can't imagine it suddenly disappearing from my memory. In a way, it's even cooler that I'll remember that shitty thing you did to me, and you'll remember that shitty thing I did to you. That means we didn't need to forget that we hurt each other in order to love each other still. We figured out a way to forgive each other, for real, and still be friends. How beautiful, yes? Let's never forget that, either."
"It's best to be ruthless with the past."
"When we believe the best of people, we let go of each thing they do that is hurtful to us. And we choose to think things like, 'I don't believe they meant to hurt me.' 'Maybe they're having a bad day or don't feel well.' 'They probably don't even realize how they sound.'"
